Property Description for 33 West 56th Street, PH-C
Perched atop one of Midtown's most distinguished addresses, Penthouse C is a graciously scaled three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath residence of approximately 2,947 square feet, wrapped on three sides by northern, southern, and eastern exposures. A 259-square-foot south-facing terrace extends the living space into the open sky, capturing sun from morning through late afternoon. Floor-to-ceiling windows — double-paned and acoustically insulated — flood the space with light throughout.
The primary suite occupies its own private wing on the upper floor — a true retreat — with soaring ceilings, direct access to the terrace, and an oversized walk-in closet appointed for a considered wardrobe. The windowed primary bath is a study in restraint and material: polished marble floors, soft gray honed marble vanities, a deep six-foot cast-iron soaking tub, and a separate shower clad in honed gray limestone. Warm teak floors run throughout the residence, and a Miele washer and dryer are discreetly integrated.
A kitchen of quiet sophistication unfolds in custom natural walnut cabinetry, a solid clear glass countertop, and a luminous glass tile backsplash. An adjacent formal dining area sets the stage for evenings that move easily from intimate suppers to gatherings of real occasion. The appliance suite is top-tier: Sub-Zero refrigeration, a Wolf range, Bosch dishwasher, Viking microwave, and a dual-zone Sub-Zero wine cooler for the serious cellar.
What sets Penthouse C apart is the sheer feeling of space. The volumes are open, the ceilings unusually generous, the proportions architect-considered — a rare canvas on which to bring a singular vision to life, at one of the finest addresses from which to enjoy the pinnacle of what New York has to offer.
Residents are looked after by a 24-hour concierge and white-glove staff under a dedicated resident manager. Arrivals are greeted by a serene lobby lounge with reflecting pool and cascading waterfall — a moment of stillness between street and home. A landscaped roof deck offers panoramic perspectives across the skyline, and a new fitness center outfitted by Technogym serves the building's residents exclusively. On-site parking is available by monthly arrangement.
As this is a sponsor sale, no board approval is required — and a buyer is free to consider modifications to the layout.
